Feeling absolute ADHD although not diagnosed (the process started but it’s so cumbersome I’m not sure I’ll make it) overwhelmed with every aspect of my life but still trying to sort things up/out. Starting with sleep. I have 2 more mins before I fail on this one (going to bed before midnight) #mastoart #watercolour #sketchbook
